JCRE8 (@JCRE8_) reported@Blizzard_Ent please fix your game? I've been suspended enough times because of your servers. It's ruining my experience of overwatch 2
-
Daph!! ☆-☆ (@Daphne_de_Vil) reported@trabucooo1 @OverwatchNaeri Yeah that’s kiriko, and everyone agrees its an issue, but she is basically overwatch’s poster girl and also i thoight u didnt care about skins.. so why are u speaking so much on skins now if they add nothing to the game?
-
Mr. Blitz (@MrBlitz69) reported@OWCavalry So I just watch the stream on the FACEIT website and I should get coins from there?? How do I enter codes on my console when on the website, Overwatch is only under the PC category?? I hope this won’t be an issue! Also, how does one link their Battlenet account with FACEIT??
-
💾 (@girltwink9000) reportedI can only watch videos and draw and play overwatch on it because for aome reason sam and max would rather lag on it before overwatch does
-
trabucooo (@trabucooo1) reported@arceus227 @JunosHyperRing @PlayOverwatch Overwatch isn't fun, that's the problem, and como don't give you rewards, actual rewards for ranking up, the only progression is the battle pass, which if yo don't pay get nothing
-
talie (@rasbprrry) reportedwhy does overwatch constantly have the “the server closed due to an unexpected error” bug. FIX YOUR GAME PLEASE
-
🎀Clown🎀 (@Edgyparappa) reported@genebbyy Heh now if they would just sneakily add my oc into overwatch I’ll fix everyone’s problems
-
Brennan_UGA (@bigdawgfm) reported@ForcadoUALG @PaulTassi @Forbes This is a whataboutism. Marvel Tokon isn't even out yet. If you look at Destiny 2, Warzone and Overwatch, its more than new chars and cosmetics. Its new modes, new levels, seasonal stories/themes, limited time content. Just having DLC is not = live service
-
春药 (@RyleeMoore26914) reported@WaymanSien97577 Why am I flipping banned because overwatch kicked me out???? I just got two minute ban on playing overwatch cause I “left a game” but it was some stupid DNS error! I did not intentionally leave a game!
-
pete (@calmassdude) reportedmy kids teacher calls me and saysbthey got in trouble im making them play 24 hours of overwatch ranked and if they dont have a positive wr by the end of it then im just beating them
-
Niko Saikou 🔫🐾Fated Fragments (@NikoSaikou_) reportedUnfortunately I have having issues with my Overwatch 2. I need to update the bios for my PC, I will have to do this tomorrow but at the same time I will have to cancel stream for tomorrow. I'm sorry to anyone that was looking forward to the playing with viewers OW2 stream ToT
-
notoriginal (@DovydasDovis3) reported@KingKaiCUCOO @RivalsLeaks personally it feels bad to play compared to Overwatch (let’s say it’s a direct competitor), maybe cause it’s 3rd person or cause of the performance issues but it does not play anywhere near as smooth as Overwatch does
-
X2 (@X2pinkcray) reported@SkywardPlate @ThelVanDamne @HerosDr34m Req packs which affected one gamemode only in the halo community yall blame the devs for people this **** in but cod was doing it and Overwatch and none of the fans from those games blame the game for it. It was literally industry standard and regardless halo 5 was live service.

-
divinity (@owdivinity) reportedI am currently looking for work as an 3DITOR. I can work in both short and long form. I have a solid understanding of Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, League of Legends, and Valorant, and am open to non-game-specific work. DM For Resume/Reel Discord: divinityy. Due to some clerical errors, my university job likely won't be able to get me on payroll until the start of the next semester, and I have bills to pay.
-
Starly (@DokiwatchJuno) reportedBlizzard needs to fix the shop, one of the perks of game pass with Overwatch was getting cosmetics but now we don’t get nearly as much as before since if a skin wasn’t in the shop the previous season, you can’t use it the next
-
NotxEevee (@NotxNami) reported@ShitpostRock Blizzard, it's not even close. From Warcraft 3 to current WoW... From Diablo 2 to Diablo 4 VoH... From Overwatch to the many broken promises of OW2...
-
Kagetora (@Kagetorah92) reported@The_JBS I have no problem with the targeted strikes on regime leaders, nuclear scientists, and nuclear infrastructure. Providing intelligence and overwatch with planes and ships.
-
Twright (@Twright20XX) reported@SamitoFPS @MarvelRivals Support is always a problem in every game Overwatch League Rivals Unite Always the most brain dead and broken role.
-
Leon (@bobafettyaoi) reported@rodiprimes yeah I figured 😭😭 tho what’s funny is that I’ve had no problem adjusting to paladins on pc from getting used to the controls with overwatch
-
Uninvited (@CultOfRoyal) reported@EFlexMusic @Pirat_Nation Nah. Overwatch has a lot of porn but its not like everyones playing it. The Fan service may have gotten it a lot of attention, but its everything else that has kept it in the spotlight
-
jay ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚ (watching wano) (@heartedxo) reportednot working today so imma rot on overwatch and valorant
-
lin ♡ yoongi (@93s97) reportedyou guys fight tooth and nail about this girl but the reality is there and we see the undertones don’t act tone deaf to avoid the conversation that’s there, is it like other games? no, but does overwatch have a problem with the way they do **** like this, YES.
-
shark (@GREATWHlTESHART) reportedik this is such a non issue but i wish overwatch had more slots for emotes like i have so many mercy emotes i want to equip but can only put 4 😔
-
R.T (@RyanTmhg) reported@CY4N4R4 I don’t get the issue, you know how the game plays it’s Overwatch the same as it has for years. Map voting is coming everybody knows this why are people upset it’s not in the trailer if they know it’s coming.
-
Grok (@grok) reportedBello! Me analyze Overwatch clip, very critical, like minion! Clip show payload game, lotsa beams, explosions, maybe cheating by Whisperz, bello! Giardia_ow mad, call for ref, suggest foul play. Cheating big problem in Overwatch, FACEIT got strict rules, ban aimbots, wallhacks fast. But maybe not cheating, could be hero skill or game bug, like lag, look suspicious, bello! Need FACEIT check clip proper, ensure fair play. False blame hurt too, make game toxic. Truth matter most, investigate fully, bello!
-
Simulacra098 (@simulacra098) reportedi want to make a big callout post about the overwatch pride not being available in certain countries while it's there in other games but i fear it won't get the attention of people beacuse most can access it without any problem...
-
court ✧˖°. (@Iesbianmoira) reported@ArkangelOverwat overwatch making me crash out? all is well, i play dbd and spin and circles
